The term “scope creep” comes up a lot, but to be honest that’s not happening here.
They have no scope in the first place. No coherent vision.
The say surface-level vision-like things and present scope-like plans, but only as disposable tools to get investment. No single person in that company tries to tie it together to a real scope or real vision, or align development with it.
Smart and capable people work on any random game-like stuff that they find interesting, in the hope that it will all somehow become a complete experience all by itself.
well we have concepts of a scope
We’ll hear about it in the not so different future please keep buying ships
The scope that exists is whatever nitpicking detail Chris Roberts is focusing on at any given moment. That blanket? Not enough physics. Water bottles have to have a glossy realistic shine. Server meshing…? But what about the coffee mugs?!
It’s the fucking worst.
Will it be released before I can explore the galaxy in real life?
Your great great great grandkids might finally get to play Star Citizen on an actual star ship.
Nope.
Invested in 2012, refunded in 2016. Best move I ever made in a game.
Star Citizen is already getting ready for quantum computing. Why aren’t you?
This is completely unrealistic. He wouldn’t have even been able to join the game.
Man, someone got filthy rich offa bunch of dumb gamers
The same situation is was when it was conceived. Chris Roberts sucks at finishing a game and releasing it. Fuck him and he should be sued in a class action lawsuit.
Honestly squadron 42 look exceptional
Can I kindly introduce you to an old games industry expo called E3? It’s not hard to make something look good in a controlled environment.
